Substance 3D Stager

In Substance 3D Stager, I am trying to fit 3d models into a photograph, replacing objects already in the photo. How can I get a wireframe view to see how the model fits over the object it replaces? Even making the model transparent would be a help. I need to be able to go from solid to see through. Right now, the 3D model covers everything, and I have no idea if it is positioned right.

I can't figure out how to move the gizmo. I imported an .obj with a bunch of models, and I'm only using one of them. Currently it's positioned quite a bit to the left of the 3d model, it's positioned in the center of the original obj, but with the other objects gone it's gone off-side.  Update: my bad. the original additional objects were still in the group. Removed them, set the pivot to "centered", and it's useable. I'd still like to move the pivot manually, but this'll work for now.

Hi Community,I've posted previously regarding a rotational animation of a model I built, where elements within the model rotate on a completely different axis point. This is maddening, and still happens occasionaly.  New issue with Stager animation; now when I try to adjust the duration of the animation, or the angle of the animation, nothing registers, nothing changes.  It has been updated to 3.2.1.  This software is becoming unuseable.  It's the most expensive "add-on" to my Adobe suite, and I'm realizing it's not worth it.  Anybody experiancing the same?  Or does anyone use similar software they could recommend?

I keep getting GPU rendering error - moments after I turn GPU rendering on under ray tracing. My drivers are all up-to-date.

Stager is the only program I've ever used where saving doesn't mean it's saved. I just lost two days of work even after saving constantly. Stager turned grey this morning and I couldn't even exit out. After I restarted my computer, it showed that my file hadn't been saved in over a day. This isn't the first time, and it happens to my coworkers as well. It seems like you have to save as constantly and then double check the file location to make sure that it actually saved. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Hello, I've been having issues with a file.It appears to be unable to load the render motor ever since I tried rendering just once.

SOS i am stuck here, I need to edit this file and submit this project. It worked perfectly fine yesterday importing objects, i saved and closed the app no problem. Opened the app and can't load my file, someone please help!!!!! Log attached

I've been unable to use my GPU using Stager since I began using the suite.  I have a pretty good graphics card.  (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060).  Please help.  Error said to post the log file to this forum.

Unable to open saved stager files. I am up against a deadline and now I cannot open a saved stager file. NOT the first time this has happened! VERY FUSTRATING!

Very frustrating, hours of work wasted.

Out of nowhere Substance won't load on my Macbook Pro.

Substace Stager file can't be saved

Hello everyone,I’m seriously frustrated with Adobe Stager. I’m using a brand-new MacBook Pro 2024 with the M4 Pro chip, and Stager crashes almost nonstop. It’s virtually impossible to build even basic 3D setups, let alone more complex scenes. I convinced my employer to adopt Adobe Stager as our primary 3D solution, but these constant crashes have pushed my project timelines beyond reason. For a costly subscription, the performance I’m getting is unacceptable. The interface and workflow in Stager are fantastic in principle, but that’s worthless if the software is practically unusable. I need clear information from Adobe: Is Adobe actively working on fixing these crash issues?When can we expect updates that actually address these bugs?Will there be native support for Apple M-series chips so I can finally tap into my machine’s GPU power? Any official response or workaround would be appreciated. Right now, this is costing me too much time and money. Thanks in advan

Hi,I'm having an issue with Substance 3D Stager crashing immediately on launch in Windows 11.After investigating, I suspect it might be related to my Windows username, which contains special characters (in my case, it's an "ñ", but it could also be accented letters or spaces).The crash seems to happen before the UI even appears. I believe the issue is that the program tries to access user folders like C:\Users\[username] and fails when there are non-standard characters.Will this be addressed in a future update? Is there any known workaround besides creating a new Windows user?Thank you! I’d appreciate any information or confirmation if the dev team is aware of this issue.

Hi,I'm working on 3D models for a website, and for the overview we need all models to have the same angle to avoid it looking messy.I've tried playing around with the camera position, and saving the x, y, z numbers, but it never ends up looking the same. Any advice? 

Hi, why do you publish an app that does'nt work?Adobe Stager crashes ALWAYS!!!!!!!! with simplest objects, and after you shine with ultimate support "discribe your problem in forum". Thank you for paying me 80 € / Month for your support.So, how do i get my files back?logfile attached…M3 Max Mac Pronewest stager version

Dear Community, Is there a known issue where all of unused materials are automacally removed from "project materials" view ?It is a pain to see my materials dispareared. Thanks for you assistance. Regards 

Hello tout le monde,Substance me donne envie de le fuir comme pas possible.J'importe en FBX sur Painter, depuis impossible de le ré-exporter facilement en un clic ou un tour de main.Outre les multi-suggestions ultra-verbeuses du logiciel, il ne restaure pas l'objet avec les modifications que je lui donne.Non, il veut bien me donner soit le maillage, soit les textures.Je veux juste faire une modification mineure sur mon objet dans la suite Substance je suis obligé de passer par Stager et celui-ci ne veut pas me le rendre en format FBX.Résultat j'ai mon objet en format OBJ ou GTLF et quand je l'importe dans Unreal Engine, il est explosé en toutes les parts qui peuvent être peignables et impossible dans Unreal de les associer pour en re-créer un. J'ai beau chercher partout comment tout associer, nulle part. ChatGPT me dit que je dois repasser par Blender.Puis Substance m'impose aussi son répertoire. Je viens du répertoire de ma librairie Blender, il veut me déplacer l'objet dans son réper

when I open my file 'Unable to open document' in dimension and also in stager

Excuse me , in the busy working time.I am a Tatsuya HigakiI am a student in Labor Transition Support Office for get my skill up for find and work. For to find my working space .Today, In studying of Substance Painter for used Substance 3D Stager. and Substance 3D Stager Crashed.Reason why,I don't understand. But I think Note PC's Spec don't .My Note PC's spec is Acer's gaming Note PC, Intel Core i7-13620H,RAM 16G,1TB .Plese,resolve.

This seems to be a pretty straightforward and very important discussion! -- maybe Adobe team can just respond for everyone's benefit? 🙂Rendering at a higher resolution (300dpi+) - for printRendering at whatever resolution (72min, looks good) - for web/digital Unlike Dimension, there is no "resolution" selection(s). You can select Full/1-2/1-4 under "Resolution".A standard magazine full-page ad at 8.5x11.Stager Resolution (setup)- Full and let's go with High/Ultra Presets.In a different post, somone said - Oh, yeah it comes out at 72dpi. "Just open it in Photoshop" change the Image size settings to 300dpi."  It's fine.   Huh?Anytime you blow up an image at 72dpi to 300dpi (example), you will always lose quality, starting from 72dpi...Can Adobe explain?  Does DPI no longer matter? Is Stager rendering at a massive DPI and when you open it and change it to 300, the 72dpi doesn't matter, it's actually not 72dpi? Maybe someone can explain a potentially entire
